Token-selection methods for on-policy distillation (OPD) prioritize student-visited positions using diverse signals, including uncertainty, teacher-student disagreement, and mismatch direction. We instead derive token importance from the distillation objective itself: how much can each position's loss decrease under an...

High-throughput perturbation screens increasingly use machine-learning models to predict the effects of gene combinations that were never measured. A difficult case arises when both genes in a test pair were seen individually during training, but their combination was not. In this setting, standard OOD methods often fa...
Protein function annotation operates over an expanding label space, making class-incremental learning (CIL) a natural framework for incorporating newly discovered functions without full retraining. Yet existing CIL methods have been developed largely in vision and have not been systematically evaluated over frozen prot...
Post-training reasoning LLMs often requires making a tradeoff between costly supervision and compute inefficiency: supervised finetuning typically requires reasoning traces, which is data inefficient since in many applications one only has prompt-answer tuples and lacks the groundtruth chain-of-thought (CoT) sequence....

Time-series language models typically align numerical signals with language using labels, captions, or question-answer pairs, without explicitly requiring their representations to preserve how the underlying signals evolve. We introduce forecast grounding, a pretraining principle that requires language-aligned time-ser...

An offline Android application that photographs a handwritten prescription, detects and reads each medicine line, resolves brand names to active ingredients, and retrieves, but never predicts, documented interactions and the patient's recorded reactions is built and evaluated.
Synthesizing time series from natural language is emerging as the most expressive form of controllable time series generation. However, existing text-conditioned generators either take caption embeddings frozen from off-the-shelf text encoders, or adapt the encoder end-to-end, letting the denoising loss shape the embed...

Recent years have witnessed an explosive trend of scaling ego-centric human videos for robot manipulation, yet it remains unclear which data actually benefits dexterous manipulation. We present SiMDex, a similarity-based data mining framework that casts human data selection for VLA post-training in dexterous manipulati...

Providing a practical and hadron-level definition of multiple jet flavors has been a long-standing challenge in collider physics. Previous work has introduced a data-driven, operational definition of quark and gluon jets, but no robust generalization beyond two jet categories presently exists. To address this, we intro...
Photonic reservoir computing is a promising physical machine-learning approach for time-series prediction. Quantization of the reservoir response signal is an important consideration in the implementation of photonic reservoir computing, and the number of quantization bits and sampling frequency need to be optimized to...

Photonic reservoir computing has attracted increasing attention as a fast and low-cost approach for time-series prediction. Photonic reservoir computing utilizes the high speed, broad bandwidth, and spatial parallelism of light. However, the effect of the internal connection structure (network topology) on the computin...

We propose Diffusion ReRoll, a diffusion-based framework for robotic sequential prediction that enables revisable denoising over horizons. Existing diffusion-based sequence predictors typically perform a single monotonic denoising process. In contrast, Diffusion ReRoll selectively re-noises regions that reach a predefi...

A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.
